Brightness: Adjust the brightness to X0.25, X0.50, X0.75 or X1.

Manual shutter menu:

Mode: Only Shut/AGC available.
Shutter: Set the manual shutter to 1/60(1/50), 1/100(1/120), 1/250, 1/500,

AGC: Set the gain level. A higher gain compensates for a brighter scene but

noise increases. Manual AGC can be set to 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42 or 44.8 dB.

Set white balance

White balance (WB) tells the camera what the color white looks like. Based on
this information, the camera will then continue to display all colors correctly even
when the color temperature of the scene changes such as from daylight to
fluorescent lighting, for example.

In the Setup menu, go to White Bal and select the options to be modified:

Menu Item Description

ATW ATW (automatic tracing white balance) limits the color temperature range

between 2,500 to 8,500˚K to reduce excessive compensation for a large

single-color object. Use it to automatically adjust the WB in real time as

the lighting conditions change. It can be used for both indoor and outdoor

locations.

Set the following options:

Speed: Set the compensation speed. A lower value makes the AWB

faster.

Delay CNT: Set the delay time between automatic adjustments of the

AWB. A smaller value increases the frequency rate of AWB.

ATW Frame: X0.5, X1.0, X1.5, X2.0. Default is X2.0.

Environment: Select Indoor (ATW is compensated for low color

temperature such as from incandescent lighting) or Outdoor (ATW is

compensated for high color temperature such as from daylight). Default is

Indoor.
Push Like ATW, the Push function continually monitors/analyzes the color

User1 This is a fixed white balance that is user-defined by blue and red gain

parameters. Only use this function when there is steady light.
Blue-gain from 0 to 255
Red- gain from 0 to 255

User2 This is a second fixed white balance that is user-defined by blue and red

gain parameters. Only use this function when there is steady light.
Blue-gain from 0 to 255
Red- gain from 0 to 255

Anti CR The anti-color rolling mode function minimizes the color changes over

long periods caused by very small differences between the flicker
frequency of non-inverter fluorescent lights and the drive frequency of the
image sensor devices.

Manual Manually adjust the white balance by blue gain only. The red gain is

automatically adjusted when the blue gain is changed. Only use this
function when there is steady light.

Level UP: Press Enter to increase the WB level.
Level DOWN: Press Enter to decrease the WB level.

Push Lock Press Enter to automatically adjust the white balance to the environment

and lock it at this value.

Set backlight compensation (BLC)

This feature tells the camera to adjust its total exposure (iris and shutter) to
ignore the brightest areas of the image, and instead concentrate on darker areas.

In the Setup menu, go to Backlight and select the opti ons t o be mo d i fie d:

Off: Option is disabled. Default setting.
BLC (Backlight Compensation): BLC can improve image quality when the

background illumination is high. It prevents the object in the center from
appearing too dark.

HLC (Highlight Compensation): HLC masks strong light sources, giving darker
areas more detail. It is often used to help identify vehicle license plate numbers,
for example.

Adjust the picture characteristics

In the Setup menu, go to Pict Adjust and select the options to be modified.

10 TruVision TVC-6110-1 / TVC-6120-1 Camera User Manual

Set the camera image characteristics such as brightness, contrast, sharpness,
hue, and saturation (called “Gain” here) of the picture. The parameters of each
can be set between 0 and 255.

Use the mirror function to flip the camera image so that it is correctly orientated
for viewing. The image can be flipped vertically, horizontally or horizontally­vertically (180 degrees). Default setting is Off.

Set ATR level

This feature is similar to WDR (wide dynamic range). It is used when there are
both bright and dark areas in the picture. It helps improve the contrast between
objects.

In the Setup menu, go to ATR and select the desired luminance and contrast
parameters.

Luminance: Select the desired luminance level - High, medium, low (default)
Contrast: Select the desired contrast level - High, midhigh, mid (default), midlow,

low

Set motion detection

Use this function to identify when a moving object passes in front of the camera
to activate an alarm. Up to four motion detection areas can be configured, each
by size and location on-screen.

In the Setup menu, go to Motion Det and select the desired parameters . Default
setting is Off.

TruVision TVC-6110-1 / TVC-6120-1 Camera User Manual 11

Detect sense: Set the sensitivity level for motion detection. A higher value is
more sensitive.

Block Disp: When enabled, any movement detected will be tracked on-screen.
Press Enter to enable or press the button again to cancel it.

Monitor area: When enabled, a square grid is displayed on-screen. It can only
be enabled if Block Disp is also enabled.

Area Sel: Up to four motion-sensitive areas can be set. Set the size and position
of each one.

Set the privacy mask area

Use this function to mask out selected areas of the image. Up to eight pri v ac y
mask areas can be configured, each by size and location on-screen.

In the Setup menu, go to Motion Det and select the desired parameters.

Area Sel: Up to eight privacy masks can be set. Select a mask and then set its
size and position values using Top, Bottom, Left and Right.

Color: Select the color of the privacy mask.
Transp: Select the transparency shade of the privacy mask. The privacy mask is

fully transparent at value 0.00 and not transparent at 1.00.

Mosaic: Enable this option to see the mask as a mosaic. Default is Off.
Note: Only four privacy mask areas can be set when motion detection is

enabled.

Set Day/Night mode

In the Setup menu, go to Day/Night and select the desired mode. The Day /N ight
mode has two options: Auto, Color and B/W.

Select Color to manually set the camera to color (day) mode.
Select Auto so that the camera can automatically switch between day (color) and

night (black and white) mode.

Auto mode:

Burst: Enable/disable the color burst component of the video signal when the

camera switches to B/W. ON mode maintains the same color signal in B/W so
that the video signal provides better compatibility with certain color equipment.
OFF mode removes the color burst signal B/W video and increase the total TV
lines.

Delay CNT: This is the time in seconds before Day↔Night switches. A long
delay response would be used, for example, to avoid switching from Night to Day
mode when car headlights pass in front of the camera.

Day→Night: Set the threshold level on how dark it should be before switching
from Day to Night mode. Lower (Higher) value makes the camera switched from
Day to Night at lower (higher) illumination

Night→Day: Set the threshold level on how light it should be before switching
from Night to Day mode.

Caution: If there is a minimal difference between the Day→Night and

Night→Day values, then camera may switch between Day and Night mode

repeatedly.

Set image noise reduction

In the Setup menu, go to NR and select the desired mode. Set the noise
reduction strength of the luminance signal (Y).
